Have you been thinking about selling your home? Are you seeing other sellers waiting and watching as buyers come and go but no one makes the all-important offer on their home? Chances are they are not showing their homes to their maximum potential.
Let’s
face it. There is a lot of competition out there and the last thing you, as a
seller, can afford to do is to allow your competition an edge over you. One way
to give your home the extra pizazz it needs to pull buyers in and keep them
interested is to stage the home.
By
contacting your premier agent Eden Mesganaw from the moment you know you want
to move, you will be directed to how to best handle all the important aspects
of selling and buying a home. This includes things like pre-home inspections,
mortgage and financing offerings, seasonal photography, competition and also
the importance of staging.
For
sellers, talking about staging, Interior Designer of Advantage Staging Michelle
Finnamore will tell you, there are several really good reasons to stage a home
– and spend a few dollars on it.
Vacant Homes Sell
for Less and Take Longer to Sell
It’s
no secret that buyers are wowed by gorgeous décor and the imagination of seeing
themselves living in that space. In fact, vacant homes sell for 16% less than
staged homes and they take about 17% longer to sell! At the end of the day, any
investment toward staging makes sense because each day your home does not sell
is costing you money, not to mention the ability to make more when you do sell
your staged home.
Staged Homes
Photograph Beautifully
Imagine
your home being photographed for a magazine. Would it jump off the pages as it
is now or if it were vacant? Or would buyers find a rich array of thoughtfully
placed furniture and accessories designed to warm up the space and demonstrate
maximum use of the space more attractive? Buyers’ perception of value will be
multiplied many times over when they see proper use of the space, allowing them
to imagine living there and visualize it as a functioning home.
And
as those gorgeous photos appear on all syndicated websites, they will be
pivotal in most home searches since 91% of buyers find their dream home online and
they base a lot of their initial decisions on the pictures they see.

Keep
in mind, if you wait too long to stage your home the listing could go stale and
end up lacking that fresh original feel a newly listed home has. Your best
buyers will usually be the serious ones that will look at your home soon after
it becomes available on the market. So the last thing you want is to be ill
prepared with a home that is not staged properly.
